Hi salty dogs, I need hull clean and repair recommendation for my Outrage
1) Before I bought my Outrage it went through a fire. Not much fiberglass damage, but has a lot of carbon black spots on the top surfaces of the hull (probably from the fire department using a fire hose to put out the seat that was one fire). The carbon black is on both the fiberglass and wood. Does anyone know of a cleaner the rid surfaces of carbon black?
2) On the side of the hull I used polishing compound to remove carbon with some success. A brown residue remained that looks similar to cigarette burn on a bathroom sink. I remember there was a bleach chemical for removal those stains, does anyone remember that product?
3) There is some surface pitting on one side (about twenty pencil eraser size pits) and a 12"x12" patch of gel coat has be removed down to fiberglass on the transom. Is there any trick I can use for repair?
Any feed back on technique for repair would as be useful. Thank you
